Welcome to the latest thread of Occupied Equestria. Set six years after season 6, it presents an alternative history where Chrysalis chose a different approach to her second attack on Equestria. The Changelings have conquered half of Equestria, while an Equestrian splinter colony - soured to Princesses notion of harmony with all creatures thank to their dealing with griffins - Invaded and took the other half. In Baltimare and the Equestruan Southlands, the magic of friendship has weakened, as Communists, Changeling infiltrators, Fascists, gangs, and even ancient necormancers and dark gods threaten the city and the surrounding regions. This role play is based in large part upon the Equestria at War mod for Hearts of Iron 4, and uses D&d 3.5e mechanics.
In the latest episode, we are starting day 4. Ash is finally getting to sleep after dealing with foals that scarified animals to evil gods, Iron is disappointed to find that the only sex he is getting is in his dreams, Dark Star has declined to have sex, Onxy has discovered the joys of socialized medicine, I don’t know what Spark is doing, and Silver has discovered that when you don’t complete a quest, you don’t get paid for it

"Frail? Frail? We fought back griffins and innumerable other dangers! What have you accomplished but become marginalized by Equestrians?"

Silver follows, keeping an eye on Blue in case he needs to use a telekinetic field to keep her from falling down.
It is officially way too fucking late for me, so I think imma head to bed. I hope we'll get to continue this tomorrow.

"That is because your tools did the job for you. Probably the tools were invented by other races except your own." Iron is not damaged by her retort. "But you do seem to look at Star as an inferior being. Do you make him fetch for tea or pick up those coconuts you were talking about? Face it, we are the strongest, or else you would not have picked Star as your coltfriend. You have the gimmick of flying. That is it." Iron casually walks diagonally left from Star.

"Tools? I will tell you what a 'tool' is. It is you. A 'native.' You are the mooks of bandits like that Caballeron, the meet to building the railroads in the jungles, subjects for the equestrian dukes, and even now, you follow around the gecko or dark star like a slave."

"Tell me now. How many changelings have you slain? How many griffins have you fought besides that one I saved you from? I'll wait"

"Huh. I thought you cared about the mission. I thought you cared for Star's mission. How selfish of you, trying to justify that your race, which just is taking the acheivements of others to boost your own." Iron smiles. "Oh yes, you are so powerful and great that you need to fight people from the shadows to win. Like the coward you are. So sorry for not seeing it sooner. We like to fight face to face, not hide in a bush and shoot creatures with some tool or stab someone in the back. Like I said, your wings are the symbol of your race: cowardice."

"Oh really? You like to fight face to face? Because I watched you try to trick the griffin special forces adviser into thinking you were his friend, walk up to him, and then trip him into the water and drag him away. Is that your proud and honorable way of fighting. A shame, because you're no better at swimming than you are at flying you almost died doing it. You're welcome again for my saving you. And then you tried the same thing again kicking rocks from a rooftop where noone could see you thanks to the fire. Dark Star, Onyx, even Shimmer all stood out in the open and got shot at. Hell, Dark Star and Shimmer nearly died, but brave little you? You hid atop your roof where it was safe while the others fought and bled and stood in danger. Some brave stallion you are.
This is not my mission. This is Spark's mission. I am here with Dark Star because he wanted me to be. And yes, I do take pride in race, culture and nation, because that's exactly the sort of that you should take pride in"

Iron is indeed hurt by this. He now looks down, ashamed of his recent failure. He has a blank stare as he follows Star, taking out his bison necklace from under the armor. "I will show my prowess at the quarry, Skies. You shall see." He stares at his necklace for a bit, then stuffing it back inside his armor.
>>80245
He does not respond.

And with that, I will go to bed. Will Iron prove Skies wrong? Who knows? All I know is I'm going to sleep. Goodnight everyone.

Blue Skies smirks for the first time. A small one, and of her malevolent variety
>>80248
She looks at him and points a hoof towards Iron in a fashion that makes it look like she's about to blurt out "well he started it!" Instead, she says "Just remember that there is a reason that all the nations of the pony world, from Equestria to the Crystal Empire to much further east, use pegasi as their royal guard and special forces. So your friend here can dispense with his haughty 'I am better than you' attitude until he's done something to prove it"

Fuck, I forgot to call Caleb.
Caleb feels Sister Ash reaching the edge of the empathetic link and decides to follow her.

After a minute, she addresses and faces Iron
"And to answer your question about Dark Star: no, I did not chose Dark Star for his physical strength of muscles. On that front he is a bit... less than average. But Dark Star was indeed chosen for me because of his strength. It's a different strength from something as petty as flesh. He has devotion to a cause. Loyalty. And bravery.
On the docks, after somepony was foolish enough to think that he could sneak attack a seasoned griffin, I drew attention to myself by shooting Redclaw in the back of the neck. It was either that or let Redclaw kill the cowardly fool, but it resulted in my being chased and shot at from the pier all the way towards the mill.
Enter Dark Star, who happened upon a griffin and a pony chasing and shooting at me. That griffin was no ordinary griffin, but an NMAC reservist whose name shall be forgotten save as 'black feathers.' Like me, Dark Star did not need to risk his life giving away his status as hostile to them. And yet he did, and he stared down both communists with his pistol. It was a choice that cost him. He was shot right though the belly by a rifle. But he shot 'Black feathers' right in the face, killing him and wounding the other for me to kill. Now I don't know if I would have died otherwise, but I can safely say Dark Star saved me from danger.
Because that is the kind of pony Dark Star is. The strength of leadership to assemble a team, the strength of intellect to lull his opponents into a false sense of security, the strength of loyalty to risk himself to save a comrade, and the strength of bravery to stare down a reservist as he himself is shot. That is true strength. That is why my superior chose Dark Star.
But if you're asking why I am with him now, well, he chose me"

I know, that's why I asked if I could control the doggo for you. It's just a dire wolf stat wise, right?

No. It's a Riding dog. It has 40 hp, because Augment Summoning.
You can move him if you feel necessary, just pls avoid using him to attack things.

No, just because you used a feat to summon an animal doesn’t mean you get to combine that feat with the dog’s natural die and the bonus die if you then claim it doesn’t magically disappear as summoned animal are supposed to, but becomes your companion animal.
Dog has 4 hit die - two natural, 2 bonus from status as a companion animal - and a statistical average of about 26 HP. You cannot claim a summoned animal bonus to a companion animal

So which one is it? Summoned or companion? Is Ash even able to have Caleb around while being unconscious?

Iron remains stoic. No use discussing when he failed his own words back at the docks. She needs some demonstration of his prowess. A real showcase.
Alright, then I'll take control of Caleb if that's alright with you. Pretend he's following all of us by Iron's side cuz he a good, loyal boi.

Iron raises an eyebrow at this small exchange. He guesses that is the gun she had on her.
